Description: Houston, Texas personal injury lawyer represented Plaintiff who sued Defendant on a premises liability theory.
"Premises liability is a branch of the law that deals with the legal obligations of property owners to keep their property safe for visitors. In Texas, property owners have a duty to exercise reasonable care to keep their property safe for visitors. This duty of care is based on the status of the visitor.
There are three categories of visitors:
Invitees: Invitees are people who have been invited onto the property for business or social purposes. Property owners owe invitees the highest duty of care.
Licensees: Licensees are people who have permission to be on the property, but not for business or social purposes. Property owners owe licensees a duty of care to keep them safe from hidden dangers, but they are not required to make the property as safe as possible.
Trespassers: Trespassers are people who are on the property without permission. Property owners owe trespassers no duty of care, except to warn them of hidden dangers that are likely to cause serious injury or death.
If a property owner fails to exercise reasonable care and a visitor is injured, the visitor may be able to file a premises liability lawsuit against the property owner. In a premises liability lawsuit, the visitor must prove that the property owner owed them a duty of care, that the property owner breached that duty of care, that the breach of the duty of care was the proximate cause of the visitor's injuries, and that the visitor suffered actual damages.
If the visitor is successful in their premises liability lawsuit, they may be able to recover damages for their medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and property damage.
It is important to speak with an experienced personal injury attorney to discuss your case and learn more about your legal options.
